Introduction
Course overview
Employees, contractors and business partners are often the first to see misconduct, fraud, safety failures or breaches of law. A trusted whistleblowing programme allows these concerns to reach the right people early, before they turn into crises, regulatory investigations or public scandals. Many jurisdictions now also set legal requirements for reporting channels and the protection of reporters.
This Whistleblowing Programme Design and Management training course shows how to build and run a speak-up programme that people trust and use. Participants learn how to design policies and reporting channels, protect confidentiality and prevent retaliation, triage and investigate reports, communicate with reporters and provide meaningful oversight to senior management and the board.
The course combines good practice from international standards and guidance with practical tools, case studies and lessons from organisations that have strengthened their speak-up culture.
